I got a new phone.
-
ah, transferring files and accounts and stuff between phones is done via the "google app" now, and my old phone supports that. looks like it'll take about 3 hours to bring everything over via bluetooth 💀
@aeva I suggest a law that any device not under the control of who purchased it should apply an electric shock to the balls/clit/whatever of whoever decided the loss of control the whole time while someone liberates their data. Minimum energy transmitted should be fixed at what one dollar can buy in electricity per second.

@aeva what? They don't do usb any more? How come?

the ETA briefly popped up to 8 hours and then slowly drifted back down to 2.5 hours. I guess the windows file copy dialog author got poached by the android team at some point.
do you mean poached like eggs?

@KevinMarks the phone came with a male-male C/A adapter, which is not useful for this specific task. perhaps they simply assume that "everyone" simply has a ziplock bag full of them by now
